	AISI \| Use of ULSAB Technologies by Automakers Growing Rapidly
		The new GM "G" platform (Cadillac DeVille, Buick LeSabre, Pontiac Bonneville and Oldsmobile Aurora) uses a tailor welded blank for the body side inner panel, similar to a body side outer panel used in ULSAB.
		GM has been using hydroforming for a similar roof rail application as ULSAB in the body structure of such vehicles as the Buick Park Avenue and Cadillac Seville.
		GM also is using this technology for the front part of the main frame members for the Sierra/Silverado trucks.

	FAO: Biotechnology in Food and Agriculture: Conference 7
		The traits of interest for GM forest research include herbicide tolerance and pest resistance (as for crops), but also a range of other features, such as delayed flowering (so that trees can be harvested before they pollinate) or lowered amounts of lignin (to reduce the costs and environmental pollution associated with paper-making).
		The minimum requirements for GM gene flow to occur are thus the presence of a sexually-compatible non-GM population in close proximity to the GM population, the possibility of outcrossing between the two populations and the production of fertile hybrids.
		Whether gene flow from GM populations is different, or has a greater potential impact, than gene flow from certain kinds of non-GM populations, such as alien (introduced) species or modern populations selected for similar characteristics as GM populations (such as increased growth rates or disease resistance).

		Looking around, you see the platform is sitting on the ground, on a small flat area among some hills...it looks vaguely like the hills that stretch along the eastern Bay Area, same topography and plantlife.
		One has a foot on the platform, stepping onto it, but he's stopped as he stares down at you, obviously as surprised at your sudden appearance as you are.
		[GM] She follows you, as the two of you move stealthily towards where you hope the exit platform is located.

	GM: Money To Burn -- And It's Burning
		From Apr. 20, when GM reported a $323 million loss, to the days following its release on the newfound profit, the stock shot up 25%, to over 26 a share, and is holding firm.
		As GM steadily lays them off, the company must keep paying most of their wages as part of its labor contract.
		Prudential Securities Inc. (PRU) analyst Michael Bruynesteyn estimates GM will burn $2.8 billion in cash while inking a profit of $240 million this year, and will run through $3.4 billion more cash in 2007 while turning a projected profit of $1.8 billion.

	GM G platform (FWD) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The General Motors G platform (also called G-Body) automobile platform name was used twice.
		The Buick Riviera moved up from the GM E platform, while the Oldsmobile Aurora was a new model.
		A short-wheelbase version was introduced in 2000 to replace the H-body, as the Buick LeSabre and Pontiac Bonneville moved to that platform.

	Conference #7
		The FAO Electronic Forum on Biotechnology in Food and Agriculture was established in March 2000 to provide a neutral platform for various parties to exchange views and experiences so that it might be possible to better understand and clarify the issues and concerns behind the debate on agricultural biotechnology for developing countries.
		A conference on the subject of gene flow from GM to non-GM populations appears therefore to be both appropriate and timely.
		The issue of gene flow from GM populations is not only of potential relevance to crop landraces or traditional varieties but also to wild relatives of the domesticated species, organic crops or non-GM crops cultivated under intensive conditions.

		GM says the 9-7X "is a key part of the most aggressive product development program" in Saab's history.
		The 9-7X, as basically a rebadged, upscale version of the other midsize GM sport utilities, is intended only as a stopgap vehicle until a new crossover model shows up to replace it in another couple of years.
		GM's market research as it began to develop the 9-7X about three years ago showed that 39 percent of Saab owners in the United States had an SUV in the household, and almost 30 percent of Saab customers who were buying something new other than a Saab were purchasing four-door SUVs.

	Public Opinion Strategies
		Although it has been estimated that 70-75% of processed foods in grocery stores contain GM foods, just 24% of Americans believe they have eaten GM foods while 58% say they have not, suggesting that Americans continue not to recognize the extent to which GM foods are present in foods they eat every day.
		But Americans have essentially the same opinion about the overall safety of GM foods as they did in 2001: 27% of consumers say that GM foods are Â“basically safeÂ” (down from 29%), while 25% say that they are Â“basically unsafeÂ” (the same as in 2001).
		Americans oppose a ban on GM foods, but are strongly supportive of a regulatory process that directly involves the FDA.

		With GM's cost-cutting measures taking effect, we imagine that the decision to develop the car in Korea was somewhat of a no-brainer for the RenCen types.
		Very few came in for warranty work (incredible for a GM product) and there was only one recall on the entire run.

	FYI Blog: The Ban on `Rubbish’ in The New York Times
		GM is wrong for acting against both the interests of America for the last twenty years; and, because of their constant anti-environment stance and actions all those years, also against the interests of humanity.
		GM protestation that it is "working on" alternative fuel or hybrid vehicles and its correct statement that it already has some hybrid buses out there is quite irrelevant.
		GM is fooling few if anyone, they have had, just like the other Detroit automakers, over 30 years to get their alternative motor and fuel act together and they have done little or nothing,
